Chicago Bears’ Red-Hot Offensive Line Faces Its Toughest Test Yet vs. Steelers’ Elite Pass Rush

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The Chicago Bears‘ dominance along the line of scrimmage has been a driving force behind head coach Ben Johnson’s climb to the top of the NFC North standings.

Chicago enters Saturday’s clash against the Pittsburgh Steelers boasting the league’s No. 2 ranked ground attack and a top-five offense that has seen quarterback Caleb Williams save some of his best moments for the final moments of games, powering five come-from-behind victories.

However, Sunday afternoon will be a critical test for just how seriously to take the Bears’ revamped line and suddenly explosive offense with a season-defining stretch of games still to come.

Bears general manager Ryan Poles prioritized fortifying the offensive line in front of Williams, and upgrading the talent along the line of scrimmage, so far to tremendous returns.

All-Pro Joe Thuney has been advertised while veterans Drew Dalman and Jonaha Jackson have been stabilizing forces, and Williams has done his part by avoiding sacks and evading pressure when it does come in the pocket.

However, according to Pro Football Focus, Sunday will be one of Chicago’s biggest tests yet, up front, and winning the line of scrimmage against the Steelers could be the biggest key to winning the game.

“The Bears’ offensive line has been in top form in 2025,” Thomas Valentine writes for PFF. “Ranking sixth in PFF pass-blocking grade (70.0) and fifth in PFF run-blocking grade (76.0). The unit has significantly contributed to the Bears’ ascent, but it will take on a Steelers’ defensive line that houses talent.

“The Steelers’ defense is third in PFF pass-rushing grade (87.2 grade) and 10th in PFF run-defense grade (69.5 grade), and third in pass-rush win rate (55.5%). The battle will be won in the trenches.”

If the Steelers are able to hold serve against the likes of T.J. Watt and Cam Heyward, it will go a long way towards validating Chicago’s early season success, and a huge step towards a potential playoff berth, as well.
